Leader of Paris society.
Paris Cable to the New York World.
The Gil Bias, in mentioning birth in
high life at Paris, relates this week an
amusing story of the incidents which led
to the marriage of the parents. The hap
py father, a marquis, is seventy years OF
age, while his wlfe is some thirty five
years younger. The child is s result Of q
marriage of ten years. The Msrquise is
an English woman She was for
merlY 3 teacher in one Of the private
schools of Paris. She believed in the
English idea Of logging and she coca
sCnally punished her pupils with cane.
One of the patrons of the school WAS the
coschman of the Marquis IN question,
B til of the children were refractory and
were frequently punished. The coach
man resented this assumption OF author

persisted in her course and SOON aftsr
had occasion to give one Of the coach

the house of the Marquis, when the coach
man rushed out, seized the teacher,
drew her into the court yard of the house

for her Furnishing his children. The
Marquis happened TO come slong while
the coachman was in the midst of mis-

In other columns of this paper will be
found several extracts taken from our
contemporaries relative to the Odd Eel
low celebration in this city last week
Tuesday. We are sorry to see the un-
kind cuts thrust by individuals who
are prejudiced and jealous Of any town but
their own. 1t would be an impossibiitv
for city of this size to Loyalty entertain
500 visitors for twenty four hours, and as
specially have everything free as air.
Centennial lodge No. 10, of this city,
did not solicit from our citizens any aid
but if they had, the citizens would have
responded literally. To insure success
for the Miller celebration every member
in that district was assessed to help de-
fray expenses. Not so with Canton.
The lodge here put up for all expenses,
and the dance in the evening was to make
them lighter. We hope our brethren
abroad in the hereafter will not be so
severe in tfer criticism. 1t looks too
much like grasping at a rotten straw to
vent pent-up spite and sordidness

1t is getting to be an iron-bound fact
that Dakota possesses about the finest
climate-that is. the most healthful-of
any state in the union. This truth will
stand any amount of hammering before it
can be shaken. The first settlers in Illi-
nois became sallow shakers from malaria,
and counted quinine as the most essential
article of consumption. There is no "fev-
er 'nager" IN Dakota, and the doctors and
undertakers all have to take claims, go to
legislature or run some side-show to SUBJ
sist. IF figures were strictly veracious they
would prove that Dakota is the health
lest region of which there are statistics
but, in fact, deaths here are confined
to the extremes of life, those who brought
the fatal disease with them or those who
disregard the common laws Of nature.
If you will notice, the air is always dry,
and free from that prevalent dampness
which causes fever and ague.

A character that demands the protec-
tion of the law to hold it together has a
slim foundation and still more Aimsy con-
struction. Thisis exemplitied In the several
cases of alleged libel being tried through

holier-than- thou people are enabled to
crawl behind the territory and ask redress
for imaginary grievances. For instance,

1t is stated by local paper in some
of the dozen or more southerly counties
that suffered from prairie fires this spring
that they were more destructive in the re-
gion covered than since 1879. The
record OF losses, as given in the local
column, is long one and comprises many
residences and other buildings, but the
most serious loss to the country is the
ruin of trees, whole groves being kiled in
some localities. These will require years
to replace. The fires last year were main
ly in the new, sparsely settled regions, the
past few weeks we're in the older and we'll

sufficient protection from this source, but

There is one thing very sure, which is
that too many fraudulent insurance COM
panies are engaged in business in Dakota.
Perhaps our laws are too slack, or per-
haps what laws we are favored with are
not enforced. but the truth remains that
Dakota is an excellent field for the insur-
ance sharper. Relative to one of these
fraudulent companies Mr.. D. j, CapwelI,
of this city, hands us the following:
1t has come under my observation that
the Farmers Mutual Live Stock associa-
tion,' of Marion, Iowa, claim to be doing
business yet and have sent out circulars
in which they state to-day there are no
losses past due and unpaid" The circu
lar was sent out February, 1887. Said
Farmers Live Stock association, of Ma
ion, is fraud and they lie when they say
there.are no losses past due and unpaid.
l had policy in said association; had a
valuable animal insured for $1,000
April l, 1856. A short time after said
policy was issued to me She animal died.
Proof of loss was sent to company, and
said company failed to pay. When the
time came that said loss should be paid,
went to Marion, Iowa, with my attor-
ney, and demanded LAY. S. P. Leverich,
the secretary, informed us the Marion
association was ont of existence and was
consolidated with National Mutual Live
Stock association, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa,
who were to pay all losses. We then
went to the said National Mutual Live
Stock association and demanded pay, and

One g. Miller, of Floyd county, Iowa.

association for $50, and after he had paid

pay the loss. They have never paid it.
| Another party at Green, Iowa, bad a
horse insured for the sum of $l4O The
horse died and the association would and
did only pay him $S3 for said loss.
The Marion association will need no
agent at this place, and will see that the
manner in which they have used the stock
men who have insured with it is fully ex-
posed. know by my own experience,
and the manner in which others have
been treated, that the Marion association
is no protection against loss.

set of men, can or could transfer and con-

ton, of Cedar Rapids: Iowa, in the fall Of
